isaiah 53:10 septuagint

Distulit in seram commissa piacula mortem, Virg. A price is paid for all, yet few delivered; the redemption of all consummated, yet, few of them redeemed; the judge satisfied, the jailer conquered, and yet the prisoners inthralled! This last stanza makes the worldwide success of Christ the marvel of all ages. And we shouldn't seek to blame someone else for our own guilt and to persecute someone else for that for which we are ourselves responsible. Such language is never applied to martyrs in the Bible; such language is never applied to them in the common discourses of people. Beware, ye who forget God in this matter, lest he tear you in pieces, and there be none to deliver you. Now, if we wish to return to a state of favor with him, sin must be taken away. The fact is, that the Father as much decreed salvation, as much effected it, and as much delighted in it, as did either God the Son, or God the Holy Spirit. You are of the seed of him "who only hath immortality." There are a few of the boldest of the saints gathered round the stake, and as he unrobes himself, ere he stands upon the fagots to receive his doom, he tells them that it is a joyous thing to be a soldier of Christ, to be allowed to give his body to be burned; and he shakes hands with them, and bids them "Good by" with merry cheer. "My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?" Now Isaiah begins to prophesy here concerning God's servant that was to come. Here are you and I to-night brought into this dilemma. When the patriot mother tears her son from her bosom, and cries, "Go, my first-born, to your country's wars; there, go and fight until your country's flag is safe, and the hearths and homes of your native land are secure," there is something in it; for she can look forward to the bloody spectacle of her son's mangled body, and yet love her country more than her own child. I hear a great talk about the example of Christ having great effect upon ungodly men; but I do not believe it, and certainly have never seen it. If you be destroyed, it shall be because you would not come to him that you might have life; because you would rebel against him; because sin from stern necessity did, as it were, compel the attribute of divine justice to kindle into vengeance, and to drive you from his presence for ever. 2We brought a report as of a child before him; he is as a root in a thirsty land: he has no form nor comeliness; and we saw him, but he had no form nor beauty. Now, when a ransom is paid for the liberty of a prisoner, does not justice demand that he should have and enjoy the liberty so purchased for him by a valuable consideration? He looks beyond the Roman spear and nail, beyond the Jewish taunt and jeer, up to the Sacred Fount, whence all things flow, and traces the crucifixion of Christ to the breast of Deity. A similar declaration occurs in Psalms 22:30, which is usually applied to the Messiah. How transcendently glorious are the nail-prints! I recollect how I used to turn to that boy of Brentford, who was first beaten with rods, and afterwards tied to the stake, cheerfully to burn for Christ's sake. And, thirdly and lastly, that posterity is under his immediate eye at all times, for "He shall see his seed." (54) (asham) primarily signifies a trespass or offense, and secondarily a trespassoffering. Yes, and ever afterward, wherever his seed may wander, he still sees them. But He was forsaken of God in order that you won't have to be forsaken by God. Isaiah Chapter 2 1 . The malice of hell has done all that it could do to destroy the seed of Christ the seed that sprang from his death. Thus have I talked with you in a very poor and feeble way, as far as my speech is concerned: but the doctrine is not feeble, the gospel is not poor. He has gone into the region of immortality. There are some of God's elect here, and he will have you. Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when he shall make his soul an offering for sin ( Isaiah 53:9-10 ). The design of the whole prophecy is to state, that in consequence of his great sufferings, he would be exalted to the highest honor (see the notes at Isaiah 52:13). Christian life needs to have daily the baptism of the Holy Ghost. [Note: Oswalt, The Book . We are towards Christ, his seed, and thus we are heirs to all that he has heirs to his business on earth, heirs to his estate in heaven. I thought, "Man alive, this is going to be great!" In his hand - Under his government and direction. Note, (1.) Ye are complete in Christ. Answer (1 of 4): Perhaps the greatest of all Messianic prophecies in the Tanakh (the Hebrew Scriptures / the Old Testament) concerning the advent of the Jewish Messiah is found in the 53rd chapter of the prophet Isaiah. It does not of necessity imply that there was any positive and direct agency on the part of Yahweh in bruising him, but only that the fact of his being thus crushed and bruised was acceptable to him. When he shall have offered his soul as a sacrifice. Septuagint Chronicles is quoted by Eupolemos in the middle of the 2nd century BC, and Septuagint Job by Pseudo-Aristeas in the beginning of the 1st century BC. Oh, no, dear friends: Jesus' death is the effect of overwhelming and infinite love on the Father's part; and every blow which wounds, every infliction which occasions sorrow, and every pang which rends his heart, speaks of the Father's love as much as the joy, the everlasting triumph, which now surrounds his head. But if I am told that I am only sent there as a part of a scheme of moral government, and that I am sent into torment to impress others with a sense of right, I ask that some one else should have the place of preacher to the people, and that I may be one of those whose felicity it shall be to be preached to; for I see no reason in justice why I should be selected as the victim. The father takes his son, binds his hands behind his back, piles up the stones, makes an altar, lays the wood, and has his fire ready. And yet, it is interesting how so often today we only associate love with physical attraction, and not with the person themselves. Both Jews and Gentiles knew pretty well what an offering for sin meant. And I believe that it will be a part of his heaven for him to look upon his redeemed. The eye of Christ is never off from the eye of faith. So cloth our prophet. When you live with the living Christ, you will live indeed. With them length of days and a numerous posterity were regarded as the highest favors, and usually as the clearest proofs of the divine love. (3.) God has authorized and appointed him to do it; it is according to God's will and for his honour that he does it. He waited his forty days, and then, with shouts of sacred song, he "led captivity captive, and ascended up on high." And that's why so many marriages are miserable, because the person has married the face but there's nothing behind the face. "We love him because he first loved us." Take him to the fire and burn the filth! "When we shall see Him, there is no beauty that we should desire Him.". The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this. The sufferer becomes the conqueror and receives a conquerors reward. He is perfectly exempt from service, and therefore can volunteer to undertake it for our sake. For He was wounded for our transgressions. Thus have I expounded the first part of the subject the origin of our Saviour's worst sufferings, the Father's pleasure. That is why when Peter stood up on the day of Pentecost and talked to the people who were involved in the crucifixion of Jesus Christ, he said unto them, "Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was proved to be of God by the signs and the wonders which He did while He was still living with you, whom you according to the predeterminate counsel and foreknowledge of God with your wicked hands have crucified and slain" ( Acts 2:22-23 ). That would be distinctly true; but the text does not so read. He didn't know what he had on his hands and he did his best to free Him. See Psalms 127:5; Psalms 128:6 : Yea, thou shalt see thy childrens children, and peace upon Israel. So one of the highest blessings which could be promised to Abraham was that he would be made the father of many nations Genesis 12:2; Genesis 17:5-6. And you say, "Did Christ drink it all to its dregs?" It was a great commendation of his sufferings, and redounded very much to his honour, that in his sufferings he made intercession for the transgressors, for those that reviled and crucified him; for he prayed, Father, forgive them, thereby showing, not only that he forgave them, but that he was now doing that upon which their forgiveness, and the forgiveness of all other transgressors, were to be founded. Now when John was in heaven and he saw the scroll in the right hand of Him who sits upon the throne, and he heard the angel proclaim with a loud voice, "Who is worthy to take the scroll and loose the seals?" And the idea is being lifted up on a cross, I will draw all men unto Me. But I will say no more about it. And people make mistakes many times in relationships because we relate on the physical, rather than upon the true nature of a person.Now, "He is despised and rejected of men; He is a man of sorrows, He's acquainted with grief.". Those who judge him show neither mercy nor justice; they just send him off to be killed. One hundred years ago or so, throughout the most of our Dissenting churches, a sort of Unitarianism was triumphant. He loved not his life unto the death, and his followers, the martyrs, did likewise, Revelation 12:11. Though he died, he rose again, and left not his children orphans, but took effectual care to secure to them the spirit, the blessing, and the inheritance of sons. While sun and moon endure, there shall be a people who follow the Lamb; and even though they be so few that Elias might say, "I, only I, am left, and they seek my life to take it away," God will reserve to himself thousands that have not bowed the knee to Baal. And that's all I needed. I wish that I could say this with less need to qualify it; but the man who really believes in Jesus, and in whom the diving life is strong and powerful, is like to Jesus, and especially like to Jesus in this that, as the Christ consecrated himself wholly to God's service and glory, so has this believer done; and as the Christ founded his successes on being dead and buried, surrendering honor, and comfort, and life itself, for his work, so should the true believer be willing to give up anything and everything, that he may achieve his life-purpose, and bring glory to God. Isaiah 53:10 Hebrew though you make; Isaiah 53:11 Dead Sea Scrolls (see also Septuagint); Masoretic Text does not have the light of life. By now, it should be clear that this chart is basically useless. Now as a general rule our bodies have an automatic reflex kind of an action, when we see a blow coming we give with the blow so it cushions the blow. but it is not so. You do understand me, I trust, that God must punish sin; that he must punish you for sin unless some one else will suffer in your stead; that Jesus Christ is the person who did suffer in the room and place of all those who ever have believed on him who do believe in him, or ever shall believe in him, making for those who believe on him a complete atonement by his substitution in their place. (1.) * The text in the Septuagint is different: In that day, God shall shine in counsel with glory upon the earth, to exalt, and to glorify the remnant of Israel. It was my sin that put Him on the cross. Well, first of all, THE DEATH OF CHRIST AS PRODUCED A POSTERITY. It has been announced to him that to-morrow is his burning day. Note, [1.] Yet it pleased the Lord to bruise him - In this verse, the prediction respecting the final glory and triumph of the Messiah commences. Do not imagine that we preach a gospel in this place for respectable, godly people. See also. No man taketh this office upon himself. He shall see his seed, number his followers in the countless millions; he shall prolong his days, be raised from the dead; the pleasure of Jehovah shall prosper in his hand, 1e., righteousness shall prosper in the world; he shall justify many, 1e., countless millions shall be saved from their sins through him; I will divide him a portion with the great, Jesus Christ shall attain worldwide and perpetual "greatness." John's first glimpse of Christ in heaven, he saw Him as a lamb that had been slaughtered. We are all equally responsible for His death. Adam Clarke Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - Isaiah 53:5. I was shocked when I first met Dr. McGee and I didn't think he would look like that at all with that southern voice. III. Why, because everyone, who is a true follower or disciple of Christ, has been born by a new birth from him into the position of disciple. This is what is called the governmental theory, that it is necessary for the maintenance of good order that an offender should be punished, but that there is nothing in sin itself which absolutely requires a penalty. Because these sufferings would tend to illustrate the divine perfections, and show the justice and mercy of God. Isaiah 53:10 Surely this can only mean that God beat Jesus up?! Christ was sent into the world by his Father, as the consequence of the Father's affection for his people. In what sense could it be said of Ignatius or Cranmer that their souls or lives were made an offering ( 'asham or hilasmos) for sin? Do not reject it: you will reject your own life if you do. Yes, the hour is coming when swords and spears shall be forgotten things when the harness of war and the pageantry of pomp shall all be laid aside for the food of the worm or the contemplation of the curious. He was despised, and we held him as of no account. Our Lord shall see his seed on the conquering hand yet. The marks were still there. The servants suffering and glory (52:13-53:12). Behold, my servant shall deal prudently, he shall be exalted and extolled ( Isaiah 52:13 ). The greater good in this case was that the Servant would be the perfect and final guilt (trespass) offering for sin thus taking away the sins of the world (John 1:29). And that's when you get laid out of the game. I mean, just a dull evening. His disciples buried him. In Gods case, if he had said in the infinite sovereignty of his absolute will, "I will have no substitute, but each man shall suffer for himself, he who sinneth shall die," none could have murmured. "Of all whom thou hast given me, I have lost none." 3But his form was ignoble, and inferior to that of the children of men; he was a man in suffering, and acquainted with the bearing of sickness, for his face is turned from us: he was dishonoured, and not esteemed. for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
